(NEWSER) – American officials are quietly and delicately alerting intelligence services around the world that Edward Snowden made off with documents that could out them as US collaborators, government sources tell the Washington Post. Countries around the world—some of which are not officially US allies—have been helping the US gather information, particularly on geopolitical foes like Iran, Russia, and China. These partners play no role in the NSA surveillance Snowden has revealed so far; rather, they're helping with more traditional espionage, primarily concerning foreign military capabilities.
